It's 1929 as The Jazz Singer hits the silver screen and the talkies promise to change movies forever. Enter three down-and-out vaudevillians who hatch a hare-brained scheme to make it big in Tinsel Town. Their plan? To open a voice academy for the witless stars of silent movies. The only things standing in their way are ditzy starlets and power-hungry movie moguls.

Starring Ed Asner and directed by Moss Hart's son, this is top-of-the-bill screwball comedy and Kaufman and Hart genius at its very best.

Listener Opinions

" Hoping that this story will get better once we actually bring it to life in theatre, but for now it was just an alright story. "

Duncan | 8/14/2012

" To be honest, this is a strange but fast moving play. It has a huge cast and we saw it on the Olivier Stage at the National Theatre, London. It has rather dated dialogue but accurately portrays the story it tells. "
